On my wish list of places to visit
The Junior Caribana version of the Caribana Parade usually happens two Saturdays prior to the big event (around noon, at Jane/Finch corner). Its eager participants are 4 to 16 years old. This is a kids' parade for kids. I would expect lots of adorable little children strutting in the procession, adjusting accessories and leotards too big for them. (It is now called the Junior Carnival , the same way the festival is now officially named Toronto Caribbean Carnival due to an internal legal fight.)
